From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 357 This guy is too much of a jerk

"You must not reveal my existence to anyone outside, or my life will be in danger..."

"Well, you are not allowed to conspire against me in any way, including but not limited to words, eye contact, gestures, or telepathic communication, otherwise my life will be in danger..."

"Any request I make to you is a matter of life and death, and you must fulfill it."

You Ming stood in front of the baby, chanting one phrase after another.

He now needs to use various regulations to tightly control this monster. This guy's background is too deep; if it leaks out even slightly, he'll be in big trouble.

The baby's face grew paler with each additional word You Ming uttered, as You Ming restricted his actions from every angle, blocking all his paths.

"I need a Six-Heart Glazed Flame now. Without this flame, I will die."

You Ming's heart stirred, and he suddenly thought of something. He then smirked and uttered another sentence.

"Where am I supposed to find the Six Hearts Glazed Fire for you!"

The baby was enraged. Upon hearing these words, his body instinctively became extremely anxious, seemingly wanting to use every means to help You Ming obtain the Six Hearts Glazed Flame in order to prevent You Ming's "death".

However, this kind of flame is very rare; he has only heard of it and has no idea where to find it.

"Ahem, I've heard that there is the Six Hearts Glazed Fire in the North Sea polar region."

"If you can find a way to get this flame, or get someone else to get it for you, I won't have to die."

You Ming coughed lightly, quickly giving a hint.

……

"Six-Heart Glazed Fire?"

The Goddess of the River looked at the baby in front of her with some doubt.

"This fire is in the North Sea. Go and find it for me quickly, as it concerns my path of reincarnation and cultivation. It cannot be delayed."

The baby, expressionless, gave the order.

He didn't reveal anything about You Ming, because among the long string of words You Ming recited was a rule that You Ming's existence must not be revealed in any form.

Even though he wished he could kill You Ming, he still had to cover for him in front of outsiders.

"But... Venerable One, the day of the Seven Killings' Ascension is approaching. If I am not by your side, how will you guide the Seven Killings Star into your Life Palace?"

Jiang Shen Niangniang frowned slightly. Could this Six Hearts Glazed Fire really be comparable to guiding the Seven Killing Stars into her life palace?

She originally planned to give birth on the day when the Seven Killings star appeared in the sky, so that the baby's destiny would resonate with the Seven Killings star and be better able to guide the Seven Killings star into the life palace.

But unexpectedly, You Ming interfered and caused her to give birth prematurely, creating many unexpected twists and turns.

"I have my own plans for this matter. I'll give you three months to retrieve the Six Hearts Glazed Flame as soon as possible."

The baby's face remained tense, and he even seemed somewhat impatient in his speech.

"Yes."

When the River Goddess saw that he was angry, she quickly agreed.

She felt quite helpless. The environment in the North Sea was harsh, and she disliked cold places by nature. In addition, she had just given birth and her strength had not yet recovered, yet she had to go to such a dangerous place.

But what could she do when the Venerable One had given the order?

"By the way, give me one of the tokens from your treasury. I might need to search for some precious materials and refine some things these days."

Just as she was about to leave, the baby suddenly trembled and continued to speak.

"……Yes."

Although she found it strange, the Goddess of the River agreed. Why was the Venerable One behaving so oddly today?

Half a day later, the entire Cangyuan River Water Palace was closed, and the River Goddess transformed into a beam of light, instantly flying towards the North Sea.

"I advise you to quit while you're ahead."

"If you really push me too far, I'll just commit suicide and be reincarnated in the future."

The baby spoke coldly.

The next moment, a figure emerged from within the jewel in front of him.

You Ming was still holding a spirit peach in his hand. It has to be said that there are many good things in this cave. Even the peaches used to entertain guests are of the spiritual medicine level.

"Oh, I forgot."

"You must not commit suicide in any way. If you die, I will be heartbroken and die with you."

Upon hearing this, You Ming immediately added a patch.

"you……"

The baby was furious. This bastard is insane!

Moreover, this inexplicable restriction is too bizarre. How could such a thing exist? It's completely limited by language. He has cultivated for countless years and has never heard of such a thing before.

"Okay, I'm a good person."

"As long as you obey me, I won't make things difficult for you. I'm just trying to survive."

You Ming said very sincerely.

The baby just sneered, clearly not believing his nonsense.

You Ming sighed slightly, wondering why no one believed his sincere feelings.

"Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. You got the treasure vault token, right? Let's go take a look."

With the Goddess of the River not at home, You Ming has relaxed.

"Humph."

The baby felt even more contempt. You claim to be a good person while coveting the treasure trove. You're shameless.

You Ming seemed not to have seen it, and with a shrinking body, he entered the pearl again.

You two scared me half to death and imprisoned me inside the pearl. It's not unreasonable for me to charge you some interest, is it?

The baby took a deep breath, but because You Ming had placed too many restrictions on him, he could not disobey them and could only head towards the treasure vault.

In the eyes of the officials of the Jiang Shen Water Palace, he was the daughter of the goddess and the young master of the Water Palace, so naturally no one dared to stop him.

The baby walked up to a building that resembled a giant inverted conch shell, threw the talisman in its hand, and the two heavy seashell doors in front of it slowly opened.

Accompanied by a roaring sound, a surge of spiritual energy rushed out, like a tide, almost making people hold their breath.

He slowly walked in, and the door closed again. The luminous pearls embedded in the walls shimmered with a faint light, illuminating the interior of the treasure vault.

The interior of the vault is divided into nine layers of corridors, towering like palaces, but constructed with crystal coral and dragon skeletons. The four walls are engraved with ancient hydrographic patterns, faintly emitting a bluish light.

"Truly worthy of being called the treasure trove of a third-rank god, it is truly magnificent."

You Ming's figure slowly floated out from inside the pearl. He was almost blinded by the countless spiritual herbs and medicines on the shelves in front of him.

"Seven-colored seaweed forest, ambergris lotus, icy chalcedony, emerald flame conch tea..."

"Damn it, what's the point of striving at all?"

Looking at the dense array of precious herbs before him, You Ming's unwavering willpower began to waver.

He could recognize only a few of them; most of the medicinal herbs were too high-end for him to have ever even seen before.

The baby next to him rolled its eyes. It was such a humiliation that they treated such a small thing like a treasure, and that it was actually trapped by such a piece of trash.
